WHAT: Loteria Ornament

DO's & DON'T's: Unlike the other swap, in this swap you will create your own loteria image. It can be your interpretation of one of the traditional images or it can be something new. It can be holiday related or not. It can be a drawing, photo, fabric, stamped image, collage sheet image... whatever you need to interpret or create your loteria design. It MUST have a number and it MUST be labeled, in either English or Spanish. (If you are not bilingual and want to use Spanish, feel free to contact me for help w/ the Spanish.)

HOW MANY: You'll make a total of 3 ornaments; you'll send 1 ornament to each of 3 partners.

WHO: No one rated less than 4.5 rating; no one with any "no-sends"; newbies welcome, but please message me first.

EXPECTATION: Pretty high. These should be really nice works of art.

WHERE: International.

RATINGS: If you get an original, unique interpretation of a traditional or new loteria image, please give a high rating even if it isn't exactly to your taste. If the ornament is extra special, please feel free to give a heart.

CAVEAT SWAPTOR: If I've forgotten something, please send me a gentle reminder. Thanks!

Here are some examples I found online, just to give you some ideas:

These are magnets, but something similar with a loop and hook could be an ornament:

Hello there Kansas kate, do we still need to be assigned partners? Or am I missing something? Hope you are okay.
